PS C:\vc\boost_1_64_0\tools\build\src\engine> .\build.bat
HRESULT was unexpected at this time.

It seems to be this bit of code that causes the error but I have no clue why.

if "_%BOOST_JAM_TOOLSET_ROOT%_" == "__" (
    if NOT "_%VS150COMNTOOLS%_" == "__" (
        set "BOOST_JAM_TOOLSET_ROOT=%VS150COMNTOOLS%..\..\VC\"
    ))

Hmm

echo "_%BOOST_JAM_TOOLSET_ROOT%_"

"_Exception calling "Query" with "1" argument(s): "Error HRESULT
E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component."\VC\_"
